Trip to Kumbo


The local children LOVED having their pictures taken.

Passengers


Two of our passengers were a Cameroonian doctor going to see a patient and a missionary needing a quick trip to the capital city.

The Runway

Does it look like there's a drop-off at the end of the runway? There is!

From the end of the runway the view is magnificent - lush green rolling hills that fade into the distance. The runway is at an altitude of 6,500 ft.

Shopping in Kumbo

Buying firewood

The local supermarket was small but had an amazing selection of French wines! At the market I was surprised to run into several people who didn't know any English or French. I had to barter in sign language.
